T: Chocolate up front - seems more prominent than the coffee, though that's obviously a huge contributor as well. Rich cacao, vanilla, and the rum spices mesh together well. Sweet roasted malts, some uncured tobacco, mocha and rum spices over the malted milk balls. It finishes fairly sweet but not cloying.

L: Pours a thick, oily mocha and mahogany stream with a rusty, dark brown head
S: Espresso, melted chocolate, and molasses
T: Bright shot of dark roasted coffee, decadent dark chocolate, vanilla, fudge, and a bit of spice from the rum barrel
F: Thick, chewy, and viscous
O: This was an excellent improvement on the base beer. Aside from being one of the most aesthetically pleasing stouts I've laid eyes on, this beer delivered a robust and flavorful tasting experience. Thick and rich with excellent espresso and chocolate notes, Rum BA Caffe Americano did not disappoint. Well done.
